Smart, Autonomous Mobile Robots

Montapacking, one of the fastest growing e-commerce companies in the Netherlands, chose to automate their logistic processes with the Lowpad.

Montapacking provides logistics for more than 600 web shops. The company is highly technology driven and was looking for an innovative solution to improve logistic processes in their warehouses. In their search they got to know the Lowpad, a product developed by Eurotec.

The Lowpad is a smart autonomous mobile robot which can be operated without requiring adjustments to the infrastructure of a warehouse. Safety is guaranteed by certified safety sensors. Lowpads are controlled through overhead software, which can be integrated seamlessly into the client’s existing system.

Compared to other autonomous mobile robots, the Lowpad system offer Montapacking the best solution to optimize their logistic processes. Edwin van der Ham, Founder Montapacking: “The Lowpad is one of a kind, because of its ultra-low height, scalability and goods to person technology. The Lowpad will fulfill a key role in our logistic processes in all our warehouses and give us the ability for hybrid order picking, a situation where order pickers and Lowpads operates in the same environment. We have high expectations about the Lowpad and looks forward to experience a major contribution of the Lowpad in our warehouse efficiency.”

The first Lowpads are recently implemented at one of Montapacking’s warehouses in Gorinchem. Eurotec looks forward to provide all the other warehouses of Montapacking in the near future with hundreds of the Lowpads.

Smart Door Controls

Manufacturing downtime costs British manufacturers more than £180 billion a year due to lost productivity. In response to this, smart technology is increasingly being implemented throughout all aspects of supply chain operations, particularly the servicing process, to provide greater operational efficiency, safety and quality. Tom Langley, Projects Director for Hörmann UK, claims to have the latest technologies available to the industry to support warehouse operators in making the servicing process easier and quicker.

“Our new SmartControl technology has been developed following feedback from clients on how we as a business can further support their logistics operations. Compatible with all Hörmann UK high-speed doors manufactured since 2015, the system aims to minimise downtime and increase productivity for supply chain operators.”

SmartControl is an online portal that imbeds servicing into the daily operation of the high speed door, providing technical door analysis that can be remotely accessed throughout the warehouse at all times. Clients can view important door information such as error messages, updates on door cycles or an in-depth overview of the high speed door’s overall performance. This enables warehouse operators to oversee the maintenance of the product at all times, as any potential faults or wear of parts can be viewed instantly.
